Can you do without it?
Then again I have never had a house or car with air conditioning, so I don't have a full understanding of what I am commenting on.

I also once had an L300 with air...........had to switch the air off when going up-hill, or over-taking!
Cheers, Greg

Aircon is appropriate technology, a bit like the internal combustion engine, hot water heaters, internet...........

Save the planet, walk, don't drive.

Try a 3 cylinder 550cc Suzuki, you had to turn it off to get moving downhill.

I wasn't bemoaning his driving, it was that fact he wanted to add a fridge to it. Typical wacked out greenie with halfed baked ideas. Name one solar
industry doesn't feed off rebates. Was that the same farmer who ringed barked all the trees and then complains about salinity problems or the farmer
that now wants a carbon credit for all the trees he didn't get round to ring barking.
